Oculus by Cloud Gate 2

The choreographer of Oculus(斷章) is Wu Kuo-chu(伍國柱). Part I and II are stunning and unique. Itching in heart and body expresses the awaken of desire. Repeat and fast moving body languages is the projection of one's behavior and mental images. Unique gestures of dancers are the best part I like the most. Between Part II and before the rain fall, that is the part should be revised.

When the rain starts falling, dancers stand still on the stage, cameraman's accurate takes plus mind soothing music, it is like standing in front of The Angelus by Millet. This is the moment shows Wu's solid training in visual arts and aesthetics.

The music and costume reminds me of Pina Bausch's Masurca Fogo. Oculus certainly shows influence from Bausch. It is true that, in some level, had created an ingenious and heart-touching piece.
